He also noted the high level of losses in the Russian Federation, noting that the ruler of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, “loses more than 1,000 soldiers a day in his war of his own choosing.”
“That’s why, like Hitler, he resorted to bombing cities and terrorizing the civilian population. The US should provide more means of air defense and long-range weapons,” Bacon emphasized.
What happened before:
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi said on February 3 that Russia demonstratively ignored the US president’s personal request to limit strikes on energy infrastructure, and now the head of state is waiting for Washington’s reaction.
- However, Trump said he believed Putin’s promise of an “energy truce” had been kept, and said their agreement was for a “Sunday to Sunday” period from January 25 to February 1.
- After the night strike of the Russian Federation on Ukrainian energy facilities, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham appealed to US President Donald Trump with a request to start the process of transferring Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.
